    Animal welfare in horse racing

    Delving into dairy cow welfare

    Growing awareness of animal welfare has led many caring Australians to actively seek more conscious choices with the products they buy. For some products this is easy, with clear labels on the packaging that identify higher-welfare practices. But when it comes to dairy these labels are largely absent, making it nearly impossible for the average shopper to know if the cheese or milk they select is from a producer with good standards of welfare for their cows. Join Dr Natalie Roadknig...

And what does that look like?How do we provide an environment at home that meets all a cats needs including enrichment and the ability to express natural cat behaviours while making them safe...

    🦆 Quacking into the questions about farmed ducks

    Farmed ducks need our attention ...

But what about farmed ducks? What is life like for them on a farm? What are the welfare issues we need to start quacking on with?

    🐶 Dogs with exaggerated features

    Squishy faces, bulging eyes, curled tails ... Unfortunately, these features can represent serious health and welfare issues for certain breeds of dogs and cats (like Pugs, French Bulldogs, British/English Bulldogs and Scottish Fold cats). On this episode of Great & Small Talk, we chat with RSPCA Australia's Chief Science Officer Dr Suzie Fowler, to uncover the daily struggles experienced by these breeds as a result of the very features they’re known for, and what we can do help ...

    🐑 Mulesing – the welfare issue we need to be talking about

    Mulesing is a painful surgical procedure that affects millions of Aussie sheep every year, but it's also a practice that many Australians know little about. One thing is for certain - mulesing is a welfare issue worth discussing, especially for those of us that choose to purchase products made from wool. In this episode, join RSPCA Australia Senior Scientific Officer Melina Tensen to get the facts.

    🥚 Egg labels: Cracking into the questions

    It can be a real minefield when it comes to egg labels, and conscious consumers want to be able to make a quick choice that they know is supporting good animal welfare. With 16.8 million hens laying eggs through various production methods, the size and scale of the Australian egg industry means that there are actually a lot of different businesses involved in the production of an egg, and widely differing welfare standards and impacts for animals. In Episode 1, we're talking all thi...
